your mastery stacks cause everbloom to heal for more, which means it cleaves more. you maximize everbloom by casting SM on CD to get the maximum amount of procs per fight, and you maximize the cleave healing by keeping HoTs on yourself permanently. that means LB and 2x Rejuvs at minimum, and you always extend them on yourself with SM.
Dont use regrowth only when damage is happening. You need to use it after every ramp to make the most out of abundance to save mana and spread the regrowth hot for nb.
The majority of your healing on this fight should be regrowth
That makes sense
you had 60% of his SM casts so your everbloom healed 20k hps compared to his 30k
the other druid is on 50 cpm and double mana potting
I d just skip comparing to subpar gameplay
overall
Are people really 4 healing beloren now?
i think you can with the ilvl
your mana was a huge issue on this pull tbh
Sounds boring
This is all good advice, thank you. One other thing that confuses me is why his average casts on stuff is so much better as well? Is it because he's extending better with SMs?
Hes just pressing more buttons
and pressing them faster
Having 46 cpm with a reck pot is criminal
following the tips Solareana gave you and leveraging regrowth will help a lot with your mana, but being oom by 3 mins might mean something else is happening that i cant see
Its not
more cpm means more hots means more mastery means more avg healing per cast is my guess
Its just abundance
Hes not using regrowth at all
7 regrowth cpm is nothing
the other druid at 11 is not much better
Okay so key takeaways, way more SM. Always on me, never on anyone else. Way more Regrowth.
Is there a minimum abundance stack number I should try to maintain before allowing myself to swap to regrowth or just smack it no matter what if people are low?
Okay so unless everyones dying it's okay to keep focusing on rejuvs to 12
It's not about people being low
Yeah for sure
Thats not the correct way to think about it
if people are dying and ur not at 12 it means you didnt ramp early enough
You ramp to 12 and then regrowth until 6 and cycle
I like that way of thinking about it, that makes a lot of sense to me
You ride abundance like a wave, up and down. You can maintain a majority of your stacks with sotf rejuv
25 regrowth cpm minimum
6 and 12 aren't like hard rules either

You should be going way higher than 12 in some cases
Yeah of course. You can't follow hard rules in a raid fight it's too chaotic
its more that people try to devalue the raw healing from rejuv by focusing on abundance
"any past 12 is pointless bc it doesnt give abundance" is a really easy trap to fall into
if your raid is going to take giga damage, you still want a hefty ramp with a lot of rejuvs out. i tranq with 16-20 when i can manage it.
My tranqs have 15+ yeah
._.
Do you run ms
But that circumstance would only be if I have the luxury of ramping that long to get that high right? If I'm at 12, and the damage is already out I should probably never be pushing rejuv at that point unless my stacks have dropped off. Or am I wrong about that?
Do you do this in m+ too?
idk i dont play resto in m+
Not really
What
I just send SM on cd in m+
Switch between tank and squishy in keys
same SM on CD
ive always been using sm on lb target in keys
When you cast more sm and every sm is on a lb + 2 rejuvs and you use most if not all of your soul procs on rejuv you’ll have much higher stacks in general
like i said
you send SM on cd in keys if you arent expecting big damage but if a mechanic is coming you hold SM till like 5s before mechanic then SM > WG > RG
if youre not at 12 stacks and damage is happening, you didnt ramp early enough
rest of the time you can SM on cd with rejuv or we ye
that's not a "wing it and hope for the best" thing
you need to fix your timing if you want to be better
If you have a tranq assigned you need to think about when to start ramping
I play m+ exactly how I play raid pretty much lol
if you have to ask that question it means you're settling, and you shouldn't settle. focus on timing your ramp so that you have 12 when the damage is coming out.
don't play poorly and then try to pick up the pieces after
Thought I was doing something wrong for a second, only thing that changes for me is LB target
I know I need to be at 12 when damage hits I meant should I ever try to get to 15-17 like you guys were saying over just regrowthing at that point
I self LB on keys too, except for a few pulls where tank gets it
I'll try that
for something like Vexamus if SM comes back up and Mana bombs are coming you want to hold SM and WG so you WG as soon as mana bombs are assigned then SM LB target and RG as soon as they explode
nah 12 stacks of abundance + damage happening is a green mark on your check list
you can pat yourself on the back
and start pressing regrowth
Thanks for taking it constructively. We know sola comes across as extremely toxic but they mean well 😏
Looking forward to seeing your logs after the advice is practiced
It's fine I came here asking for help and you guys took time to look at my shitty logs I'm not going to be offended to be called bad when my question was "why am I bad?" lol
That's tame
ye it was helpful tho
Helpful for people observing as well, like myself. This kind of deepdive helps
It's how I learned lol
I think I respond better to harsh coaching anyway lol
^^ for sure same here
I'd rather hear it like it is
Thats a core memory right there
I really need tracking tools for LB and Abundance. I tunnel way too much on the health bars and forget to keep track of the uptime/stacks.
dont you have a belo ren to prepare for
shall i introduce you to 2 addons created by our very own @thorn plover, HoTTracker and LifebloomAlert
beat me to it
Just installed. Thank you 🙂
Oh snap, they made LifebloomAlert? Even Method uses that in RTWF lol
yeh i went from ~50% lb uptime to >97% with lifebloomalert
ill eventually get to 100% 
tbf we all had weakauras that did the same thing
but its nice to have it again after they purged addons
@thorn plover I tried to log in and blizzard deactivated my account because resto druid sucks now
Don’t need any weak auras I just look at my frame
My current dilemma.
Not true
yeaaaah cant wait to do more lu'ra hc, and watch all the people dying to glaives 😩
sure you can... just solo heal 25m
Could always level a second Resto druid exclusively for practicing purposes lol
ig i could like go to hc raids log it and just make sure all my cpms and timings are right
regardless of there not being any actual damage to heal
exactly
You can do pretty good practice on chim hero or saladbar/alleria
H saladbar dies in like 2 minutes
Theres no damage to heal in mythic atp either lol
Should see how many bosses Voulk will heal through when he's theory crafting shit
ye but my guild actually reduces healer size to account for that
heroic salad has more to heal than myth a lot of the time... since they just insta double orb
so healers still get to heal
4 healing all of heroic was so hard to not fall asleep
4 healing, on farm?
our healers are so ahead of our dps in terms of skill that we're usually just 3 healing prog bosses bc we're pulling them 4 weeks later than everybody else
Its not only voulk
Its a shared effort
it's not, you're right
yeaaaah but now were only doing lura h prog, got to 17% the first time ig
honestly just the top name that came into mind, I know you all are in discord on the ptr trying shit. Wasn't trying to minimize the efforts of the discord
When the apex buff came out it was just days of yall chatting in here and testing shit
any plans on raiding mythic after for your guild?
Chim is a pretty fun fight to heal imo
it needs to do like double the damage during everything that isn't consume... lol
during prog i think ppl take care about that
Let chim eat an add so you can heal
^
push an add into his mouth "whoops mb"
oh didn't mean to press typhoon there
Typhoon that shit right into the mouth
asked to two heal it this week... but they said no
Vortex on top so it can't be death gripped
yeah basically all top logs on chim are 2 heal
yeah supposed to do chim and first couple of voidspire bosses
they are pretty casual on retail, they mostly play TBC and some MoP.
ye i think 4/9M is good and chill
if we still stuck at lu'ra this week tho ill prolly look for a guild :3 those are my homies from classic tho
but no way we dont kill it we got to last phase 17%
Lura on HC is just P2 sim I think
honestly you can pug to 4/9 decently easy
some pugs are starting to go for dragons even
would say first couple myth bosses are easier than h lura to learn. lol
oh for sure
yeah
heroic lura not even hard smh
HC Lura is a good HC endboss
at least as healer its pretty shrimple
i know when my guild got to lura after killing beloren we were like
yeah no
lets get back to M
lmao
we arent even killing belo quick
we got aotc after being like 5/9M
sadly we pursued aotc before stepping foot into Mythic, it worked out though
roster boss
the good thing about that is then the first 3 bosses on M
are just piss easy
in comparison
4m10 fight D:
yeah but if you got like a boomie or ele shammy
sending cds on pull then you have no dps on egg
only ppl that can cd on pull are 1 minuters and maybe a devourer if they play good enough
the problem is they probably are that high
^
I know I am
cant play wow without being high, actually gives me an irl buff.
mark of the high
Cracking open one of those medicated drinks at the beginning of raid and after first break, fun times
but yeah since they casual im not complaining too much but I do want to get to mythic and have more fun
is it your first season on retail as well or just them
I raided here and there to get aotc and some mythic raiding in df, dont think they raided retail all that much
I need a sanity check. Does it make sense that a Hero track Eye of Midnight is simming better than a myth track ring?
a poorly stated one, yeah
Not all that unexpected
It's out-simming M MT ring, so not even a poorly statted one
how low is your haste <_<
You can always link reports if you want a more serious look
I ran a sim on H track Eye of Midnight, and M track Nexus and MT rings
Optimize your healers gear using cutting edge math and theorycrafting.
literally nothing...
.01% large upgrade 
Well I don't have either M MT ring or H Eye yet. I was trying to decide what to do with my bonus rolls once I figure out what I'm getting from raid tonight
Based on this report I'd wear the 289
Coin Lura for neck
well one is way easier to get than the other
rolling on heroic bosses feels so bad /-:
Not really
Last time I simmed H track Lura neck, crafted was better
I'm not killing Mythic L'ura
If only people could read
I was moreso surprised that it was even that close
yeah 15hps
no mainstat on those slots means you can rock heroic jewelry longer than other slots
Welp looks like I am coining MT this week unless I get impatient and coin Chimaerus for belt, but trying not to let the intrusive thoughts win on that one
it gives you more secondary stats anyways because second gem slot too
Myth Chim belt should be fast enough to get from vault anyway and idk how much competition there is for it in my raid if it drops
That's absolutely adorable

Only cats,bears,chickens and trees here
And rats per Broc
Bears are just forest doggos though
Hmm not really sure what to take here
Kinda wanna go neck even if its ilvl downgrade
why?
your crafted neck is slightly better stat amount wise (obviously)
switching over to that hero neck would indeed give u a lot more mastery but u also lose a lot of haste
The neck is not fully upgraded
dude
jewellery stat doesnt increase dramatically after upgrade
especially only 2 jumps
Just simming it would save us from this conversation
Hes wrong though
Confidently
The hero neck totals 319 stats fully upgraded and gemmed

And its high haste
It jumps enough to be more stats in this case
it's low haste
also the crafted neck totals 317 with gem
is litany good for cosmos prog if upgrade to mythic track
Im wrong!
@gentle nova did you put lifebloom on crystals for lura
such is life
Yes, monk phys damage buff for the magic damage comp
I've just realized i havent seen a monk tank today
dont play with me blizz
I refuse
I tried
rate my warband tmog
@bright swift did you carry a crystal on lura?
in p3
was thinking if i should carry in p1
reminds me of anime adventure party, show off-mysterious-big warrior-shy priest

Is there any world in which you drop your weapon embellish for 2 arcanoweaves once you get 298 weapons?
Seems like the weapon embellish is the strongest option but I'm unsure
Yes that's the usual gearing path
Wear Hunt until max level wep -> swap to double arcano
Alright, thx for the quick response!
you always stay up then or?
do you also press the memory game?
and do you lb a crystal?
Yes
No but I have it bound just in case a crystal is healed up or someone accidently picks up I don’t want us to wipe
If you need to you can, I did on early prog but it bricks your mana long term, you can do a solid amount of healing to them with just 2 rejuv some rg maybe a wg and a fat sotf ns rg
do you think its smart to do both i will most likely do both for my guild i think
carry crystal and do memory game
Do surface memory game?
ye
I think you should make a tank do it
Healers don’t do it because it’s easy or better to force coggy load on your healers, they do it because only 1 healer gets sent per phase and it would be impossible to setup any consistent way for dps to do downstairs memory game
I think the tank job is very easy in comparison
Yeah we passed RL to our tank and he always did it
I think that's the best strat for upstairs
Yeah, also if you are assigned that and someone ever yoinks your crystal it’s an insta wipe
Well 50% chance for insta wipe
aight get it
Yo, do you have a pov by any chance ?
No
Got gaze in vault but it’s in the LFR raid track I did instead of the m+ where I focused, rip
You can't get raid items in the dungeon vault
Is HC Alnseer better than myth track M+ trinkets once ascended?
Sim it
Optimize your healers gear using cutting edge math and theorycrafting.
Oh good to know actually
I’ll have to aim for dungeon-bis then
Huh
what are you confused about?
anyone have that mastery-effectiveness-per-stack chart? thinking about swapping ND for HB after getting toasted in a 19 SR (at least in SR)
that's a good idea yeah
nd is a comfort node in my eyes, hb is better for higher stuff
I play nd myself but I stopped at 16/17s
nd sucks is bait anyways
swapped nd for 2 tv here
rather put 2x in tv
u know ball…
It's on QE resto druid page
HB is bait
will think a bit about TV x2, too - doesn't seem like that'd help me quickly spot heal solar beams as much as hb would?
I have no reason to take HB because I don't move LB
Can't relate
Rdruids allergic to their regrowth button
How much healing increase are you getting on your Lifebloom target do you think
Take a guess
huh - I'm LBing the solar beam victim immediately during the cast to prep (and usually move it around a lot)
no clue I don’t play it prob insanely little
but i guess i don't play with an aug terribly often
Says it’s not a bad option
cuz it isn’t
Are you guys not taking 2tv?
it is objectively more useful than ND on the bosses he’s struggling with
don’t need to be mathematician to know it
my default is 1tv
2tv is mandatory imo
lol
Do they roll rejuvs sometimes
Or are they never rejuving
(timed 18s, starting to work on 19s)
for sure, less time spent casting more rejuvs with nd up
I dont know how you can argue that’s objective at all
how is nd any more useful on last boss can u explain
it is certainly easier to keep the team hotted up to prepare for those beams w/ nd, but HB feels like a huge boost to my RG spam while the beam is casting
Well if you’re healing people having rejuvs up helps heal people 🤯
Both on the person your healing and on other people
2 extra mastery stacks on a target that should already have at minimum 3 hots is not nearly as good as you think it is
yeah, that's why i wanted the chart
Someone did the math and it’s about 10% healing increase on your lb target
Not running 2tv or ND means you're pushing rejuv ALOT
or you're regrowthing people with no rejuvs
i think i might be dumb - why does 2tv over 1tv mean I can push rejuv less?
2 tv will increase your regrowth cleave
It doesn't, but it makes your sotf rejuv hit a lot harder
Rejuv initial heal is meaningful healing, regrowth hot duration helps with nb value on off targets and bloom proc rate
Just less needed to have more rejuvs if the initial rejuv heal actually does something
looks like, in my use case (44% mastery), HB is worth 19.7% add'l healing on a target with three hots up (inc'l lb)
10% a stack?
yeah, reasonable - i definitely enjoy my 1pt in tv - just not sure where i'd take the other from
🤔
yeah and u also have insane amount of time to prepare and press rejuvs? idk how he’s playing or w/e but if he’s struggling to heal a specific mechanic and he is pressing his buttons ND legit won’t help him, HB will
3 hots is very low for spothealing
I don't think you're getting 20% healing from 2 mastery stacks
my math is: I have 44% mastery - according to the QE chart, 5 stacks is a 3.2x mult - 3 stacks is a 2.3x mult - so I'm doing +140.8% healing with HB ("5" stacks), and +101.2% healing without it (3 stacks)
240.8 / 201.2 = 1.197
That’s correct math but 3 is a bad assumption
obv that only applies for RG cast #1
yeah
i think on that specific pull, I'm looking more at playstyle changes than talent changes - but was thinking about it anyway
placebo effect helps anyways
Is this 2nd boss or trash before 2nd boss
the QE chart doesn't go beyond 5 stacks, so a little hard to math the rest
trash
the solar beams the big golems cast - ~250k/tick, 5 ticks on a 19
right they do hit hard..
oh I thought beams on boss zz
Idk I've never moved lifebloom off myself there
Go into trash fully hotted and spam regrowth
other then getting new pants and a trinket im unsure how to min max gear, qelive told me to catalyze the cloak but I was wondering regarding crafted pieces what we should choose? I have myth boots that can be also upgraded to max
holy what a form
Follow the sim
thats a flying travel form right ? xd
harandar ye
Crafted gear is in the upgrade finder
I'm so mad nelf morph are ass compared to newer ones
yeah, yesterday's the first day I really struggled with it - felt fine through 18
I'll never leave meld obviously but dang
ye well it doesnt tell me to craft stuff if im going in the upgrade by slot or crafted
form grp with only nelfs
love meld too much while pugging
lol yeah that'd help too
And hunter
im not really in favor of harandar forms tho
amount of times I get tank that do 0 aggro while gathering oof
and mages:DDD
Suuuuuuuuure
well all things being said
was wondering if swapping out the boots and putting embellishment on something else was worth, qelive wont tell me that i guess
HB effect on LB is definitely good enough to consider for high single person dmg taken situations
but from what u said, struggle only happened recently one time
lowkey won’t feel a diff
im definitely not a fan of those damned golems
some pugs take all of them
sweaty healings damn it
will try out a little 2tv in general - haven't done that all season in m+
is not so horrible if at least have 1 meld
even worse if they're all synced
when overalp bark 1 and spam rg on other
yeah, we had no automatic outs of any kind
that doesn’t help sadly
and yes, in this case, the tank didn't wait for the double pull
is jst cancer when is 2x beams on 1 person
oh it can target the same person huh 😮
yes at least it could 2 weeks ago idk now
i've seen tanks pull one, wait a sec, then pull the other so the beams don't overlap - that's great
oh wow never had it happen sounds hella rough
Your tank sucks if that's happening
feel like those mechanics shouldn’t target same player
well yes
ah mostly happens when they are synced then
No excuse for that to happen
can’t it go on same player if 1 is alr casting?
idk about it
so its not passing the check on target since they are both doing it at same time
If you pull them at the same time ya
nothing prevents them from targeting same guy
But they should never be synced up
I thought there was some kind of check if person already has beam debuff to not get target twice in the same window
ye but im saying if they stagger pull them
well in this case
You can't get 2 at once if you stagger them
okok
its just a dot from active beam
You can get 2 in a row on same guy, but you can deal with that
two in a row on the same person's beneficial a lot of the time
But if you're getting 2 casts at once your tank doesn't know what they're doing
usually w/e defensive got pressed for the first one's still active
idk i only play low keys now so tanks are a bit dumb
noticed that happening thought it was normal
yeaaaah I stick to 12 for pugs and just run with guild for anything else
just play with imorph
u can have whatever morph u want
Isn't that like.. allowed but also not but also yes but also who knows ?
buuuuut isnt it against tos!
it's tolerated
as long as you dont openly stream I dont see any issue tho
Yeah so it's who knows category
even back then some streamers had imorph 🤷♂️
go on their discord for official links, don't go downloading random stuff
Well ye obviously
Evening
I haven't done much raid healing this season, and I am curious on who we keep lifebloom on with this new apex talent
We have more healing when healing ourself
So everbloom does more overall
That and we can position the efflorescence zone better
Yourself always.
Lifebloom and 2 rejuvs on yourself, and every swiftmend on yourself

Okay, thanks
Next question. When we stack abundance, we aim to have full stack before blasting regrowth or just around 6-7 on low damage periodes?
you want to go to 12 stacks then spam the shit out of regrowth, then once you are back down to 4-5 stacks you build back up to 12 and repeat
also be sure to play with NB and spread rg hots as much as possible for the 20% free healing
running into an issue with wild growth not targeting myself with mouse over in raids? am i being stupid or has anyone else run into this
wild growth only uses your target for the range calculation, not for who gets the buff
it goes on the lower HP allies in range
NB? Sorry I am lost
Nature's bounty
natures bounty
It's a talent
RG cleaves to all targets with RG on them
Ah. Thank you all. I do play that
once at 12 stacks you don't want to spam the same target thats what I mean
you press one regrowth on one guy then onto the next
I know that much
sweet
Not totally lost. It was more or less the apex talent that is weird to me, and the one making efflo go under lifebloom. Couldnt really see what made the most sense, and I was looking at wowhead, but that just states to keep it up
You'll see massive everbloom healing soon enough and it will be obvious why it's nice 😄
I am looking forward to that then
One more question. Soul of the forest on regrowth or rejuv?
Mostly on rejuv
Using it on regrowth hurts your healing in the near future for a burst right now and it costs you a lot of mana
It can be good though especially with NS too
Mainly using it on rejuv to get the buffed and extra free one out there
Ye
You use it on rejuv because casting sotf rejuv then 3 regrowths costs much less mana than casting sotf regrowth then 3 rejuvs
So would we generally use sotf on rejuv even if we’re already at 12 abundance?
yes
Ty
damn
the proc on this is 2 procs per minute + haste, with my stats as resto druid, i have 1206 haste, this does 2.5 procs per minute. that comes down to 114892.5 healing per minute or 1914.875 HPS. @main timber sorry to bother, but would 1914.875 hps be worth "getting 48 crit", as compared to the amulet of the abyssal hymm, the absolute diff in stats would be -43 haste +28 mastery, +48 crit
MW feels weird when it comes to boss fights immediate dangers huh
i think that's going to be better than the abyssal hymm amulet
we do lose a single socket slot ontop as well, so 16 haste and 7 mastery loss ontop of that i guess
allu, u are forgetting that all gear is random secondaries
I am like 90% done with these so can test some new sets in a day or two
Uh I guess so but then again it's the restodruid discord so idk 
Not anymore
at least they are supposed to be random
they became determined

They changed how this loot works like 3 times haha
lol
it all has crit
the armour
the ring is haste/mastery
high haste low mastery
the 5 relevant pieces for Rdruid are linked right there
the one thing i need to calc out is ilvl 298 vs ilvl 289 + leech from the midnight falls helm?
Helm would mean using chest 4p no ?
helm can be catalysed
Well if you even run that to begin with
As 298?
Yes, your set will look really weird after this is live
Because it will be a weird mix of 289 and 298 loot
catalysing the helm from midnight falls keeps the leech, and the sporefused myth gear should according to anecdotes from ptr keep being 298 after cata
somewhere dragons-paladins
oh, my friend said dragons
So possibly puggable after a bit then
I expect you will be able to pug it
Maybe not week 1, but after people get some knowledge
Yeah
but yeah... that ring looks juicy in terms of stats, i currently have a crafted + npx haste/mastery ring and i'm definitly want it.
the neck if my calc of 1900 hps is correct, that on it's own is like 1% hps
without noticing stats
I'd be curious about neck proc rate as well, mostly for m+ but still
2PPM + haste
Hmm not bad
ring is 3PPM + haste
trinket is 2PPM + haste, but because it can proc crit/vers, i dont see it outperforming alnseer, cuz it cannot be voidcored
I added trinket to chart and it's fine but doesn't rank top 5
Looks ass yeah, but I guess helm ring neck looks very good at a minimum
And belt well.. has intellect I guess
when they were released or right now?
If we were at 12 abundance and have fallen down to like 9 or 10 and there’s not really any damage going on, is it okay to ramp back up to 12 before falling to 6? Or should we just hit regrowths on as many targets as possible until 6
If nothing is happening and your mana is okay, and will be okay then I guess it's fine
No? Nvm then eh
for no reason
Man raid gameplay looks so ass 
I’m just new. Only been raid healing for like 2-3 weeks xd
Last pull of algethar trash is disgusting
I think I've come to the last boss and people just troll at the last pack constantly
Like 4 times or something
Hmm which one ?
The algathar echo knight
Check your regrowth and rejuv casts over a fight and it’ll be pretty easy to tell if you’re judgment on incoming dmg is accurate or not
What about them then ?
'guess the smash is dangerous but how can ppl troll there ?
swapped to resto for raid (normally m+ on it and raid on evoker). Seems... less fun here lol
Pulling the patrol or generally baiting echoes in a stupid position, its always the two guys guarding the front door, people run in and want to LoS but stand in the doorway then an echo spawns on the doorway and then I get LoS shenanigans on that
Anyone here that gave me advice earlier just wanna say tysm. I been practicing in Heroic and just parsed a 90 which is beyond anything I've done before and that's still getting used to the new rotation you gave me
Ah ye I see
Also I dont get what route this tank did, 2 echo knights on side of the stairs, up the stairs so I gotta heal 3 arcane smashes, then he pulls 3 echo knights again chain pulling one into the two guarding the doorway
I even felt accomplishment of being able to heal 3 smashes
pulls 3 more back to back

6 sounds.. odd
Common things would be to do the 3 mobs in the stairs, nuking one smasher then pulling the ones on the left
And then pulling the two on the door
I haven't done aa beyond +19 but it sounds weird to pull that many
Yeah its uncommon, first time I ever see it. Still people trolling on that pull regardless of the route
Idk im pretty madge
Can't win 'em all 
Hypothetically if we were being asked to drop a single talent point to take ironbark CDR for belo, what do we think is the least impactful one to lose? Was thinking maybe either germ or TV
WHAT
Is there a website or YouTuber that shows what to do down to the trash? I need my hand held like that
Thanks papi, I’ll try it out
Grove guardians but also what the fuck are you doing with bark cdr for belo 
Is there a logs review channel
Is that for 2nd p1
What does that even net you
Because you can’t do 1st and 2nd soaks in p1 I think
Idk man, the people in charge are doing stuff with externals and they asked me if I could make it work
Figured I’d see lol
this is the log review channel
I think that talent doesn’t net you any soak barks
It saves someone for when they eat the wrong color tho
I think the soaks are too close together and you skip the 3rd in 2nd p1 anyways
Vick on youtube has a good commentary about various pulls of M+
Then you should take rh, group soak the soaks and call it a day
Or just max healing
Yesh rh is goated
Do you think it is worth planting in bad to cast wg
To force one on yourself
Say on alleria or saldahar
Atp go for it lmao
On prog
Like you dip into a pool start to cast wg then move out
Timing your wg before a swiftmend so you can double extend it
Ignore anything vickman says about haste. Please.
What about my rejuv and regrowth casts would indicate that my judgement is off?

Hello guys, hope this is the right channel.
I just came here because I'm going crazy. I've been a Resto Druid for ages. Every season, I've been able to perform well in raids with very good numbers (>90% parses). However, since 12.0.5, my numbers have dropped dramatically, and the more I study and try to figure out why, the more frustrated I become.
At this point, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I'm only around item level 288. Studying other logs, videos, and guides doesn't help.
I desperately need help.
Here’s an example of this poor performance https://www.warcraftlogs.com/reports/PLYkf8v9gAFJqhX1?fight=15
you need to use way way way more regrowths
like legit 4x as many
that is pretty much the root of all your problems
your mana is bad because of no regrowths, your cooldowns are bad because of no regrowths
I usually end up having equal rejuv and regrowth casts on most bosses
Is that you consider my main issue?
yeah
Yisus.. should focus on it so
At least now I have a path to follow
My partner "Khunna" has a lot of everbloom numbers (blooms of life bloom(?)) whit less activity (self assumption). How is that possible?
Also reju thicks on him is in aversge a lot of better than mines. Is that related also with rewroths?
both of your lb uptimes and everbloom healing done are pretty much equal, they could have more healing because they have higher avg mastery stacks on themselves for example
that makes up for the slight difference
stop comparing yourself to that other druid
they are not playing well either
compare yourself to someone you know is good that you can actually trust to play well
12/16 lifeblooms not renewed in pandemic
yes swiftmend can also be part of why the other druids rejuvs heal for more
since they get more empowered rejuvs
Tranqs not having a large enough ramp
Not all swiftmends are extending a lb and 2x rejuv
Convokes not having a wg before them
All of these add to your poor performanc
So my key points: Rewroths as spending before reju ramp looking for equal casts at least
Renewal up LF to 100% uptime
Swiftmend spam
Less manual rejus and more empowered (switfmend related)
So switmends allways on my self to extend self rejus and LB?
yes
Added to my list
Yey, less than 4.5 seconds
hey guys, can anyone tell me what their raid team’s strat is for vanguards? i’m really struggling on this boss with soak positioning and i feel like healing absorbs are being done wrong.
it’s easy but we have 4 healers doing it, so there’s like nothing to heal by 2 seconds in
Ok just a thing here. LF renewal on pandemic window triggers final bloom and add hot time again. So if I use Switfmend on myself having LB in pandemic, this procs final bloom quickier due to have less time to next final bloom?
low swiftmend cpm, low regrowth cpm and low lb uptime
just wanna say my hps is so low at this point because i was mega oom, no evoker buff
also potting with the wrong pot
are we mana potting?
You are oom because you re not making the best use of abundance
We are reck potting
You want haste
Look at my log as im also on paladins with my guild
what is the strat for healer absorbs? should it be one healer focusing it in healer stack or all healers healing it?
Similar wipe %
My swiftmend cpm was also bad this pull
But you can see a clear difference in regrowths
yeah i find regrowthing kinda difficult in this fight because of having to dodge so much shit
Well there is plenty of time where you dont have to dodge shit
@spark river what is your raid’s strat for heal absorbs? are you the one focusing it?
4 healers and 2 dps are taking absorbs
Nothing really special
Sometimes I have even time to heal the whole raid because the hots on myself are doing a lot of work
yeah okay perfect thank you! and one last question
what are your soak positionings like?
yeah okay that was me but then i got taken off it
i didn’t preposition, i just stood in the middle and found the gap and ig the officers didn’t like that strat idk
Am I wrong maybe?
I usually stand in a group with another healer and if we both have it im the one looking for the spot that needs a ssoak
Yes, you are wrong
ok thank you!!
We swiftmend ourselves because it extends lb and 2x rejuv with verdant infusion talent which frees up globals and applies symbiotic blooms due to implant. We get the lb bloom when we renew in pandemic, but your next bloom is not going to bloom faster.
How do you deal with the healers getting to absorb position after the second execution sentence in time?
I use tiger dash and the evoker uses hover
Even if someone else takes one absorb
It isnt a big deal
Yeah, our tank usually ends up with a tick on the first absorb and sometimes it kills him is all
mostly because he sucks
but yeah
The tanks in my guild have also been struggling a bit with the taunt swaps
Btw idk if you saw my thanks earlier Sol but I did some practicing implementing your tips on heroic and I literally went up 40% in HPS and parsed 90+'s on every single boss. Thank you
Yes I always log
since crest uncapped I should prolly just send it on a crafted neck at this point I think riiight
Forgot to give thanks @spark river / @proven phoenix . I have now things to study and apply after time being hardstuck. Will come again with results or dead (whicever comes first) 
havent played my druid for a week im rusty D:
mar of the wor
Hey, new to midnight resto druid, I main mistweaver and I was looking forward to some optimized catweaving, is it still good or is it better to just cast spells? Also Im finding it hard to get some good talents for it
(all of the above its for mythic + btw)
You can catweave or you can go caster. Both are viable. Catweaving is more prio damage and caster is more pad aoe. Restoration druid damage in keys is negligible, so I would play the one you like better.
Any higher level m+ healers still putting out twitch/youtube of them playing Resto Druid and worth watching? I’m wondering whether to play my Druid more between raid but it feels like a lot of the higher Druids have switched to mistweaver or not pushed a key since early May
lets goooo nexus ring to replace the pos one!
@spark river you have Liveliness instead shapeshift talent for having Source of Magic evoker buf? Or with a proper mana management that buff doesnt matter and liveliness should be uses always?
With proper mana management, you dont need master shapeshifter
Source of Magic gives very minimal mana, its more about 3% to healing
I see
I will keep sniffing your log trying to get clues of how should I play, thanks!
Its decent, but as with everyone my log also has mistakes
im stuck with the two npx ones. Bifurcation band some day
craft <_<
are apexless builds pretty much dead?
yes
great numerically, which i'll adapt to, but the gameplay hook is not my favorite
??
what's so confusing about it? i don't like the playstyle as much as past iterations but i still want to complete content with the spec so in the end adapt to the playstyle because it is numerically superior
apex and no apex play the same...
the playstyle is the same tho
beloren tips?
so just like every fight i heal
got it
thanks niko
🐐
why are all the guide videos 35 minutes fucking long for every fight this tier
like i have a 3 minute attention span guy
the only thing you want to know is where your raid wants to drop soaks
so when you get it you can run there
@bright swift where the f is your beloren kill, i rely on those to raid yk
you might have an ironbark assigned too
YouTube...
Check my YouTube...
good point
You can soak both circles at the same time actually!
yeah orbs are mostly, soak it if you dont wanna move and its boutta hit you
and its same color :^)
Oh yeah true I gotta share the WA
🤣
if you can see the floor, its too small
this is a buff.
i had to go into the saved variables and delete the WA from the lua files or my game crashed as soon as i opened the WA screen lmao
hero Ribbon or myth Void Suffuser for raid ? (not a vault question I already have both)
they are
id be surprised if QE doesnt say ribbon over suffuser
sim says suffuser
what does the settings say for average HP on suffuser
put the setting for average HP to like 92%, because thats realistically the value it gets
but its probably within a tiny margin
hero drums outsim myth suffuser for me lol
wild
92 says ribbon, 85 says suffuser
hmmm. touch choice
having a trinket that is better the more you're underhealing is funny
Lights potential vs Reckless potion on Mythic Belo ? whats yalls thoughs
always reck
Why is it 90% top logs use potential then ?
they're all stupid
top logs at this point in the season dont mean much
im already at first haste dr, still reck?
yes
only first dr 
Jesus I wish that were me
im 43
I'm 12 and I'm doing an arts and crafts degree
this boss is stupid
huge
now crank p2
sorry which boss
birb
yes
dying to interrupts
I tranq'd twice on the fight, both egg phases
xdd
?????
your 2nd p1 was that slow

we 4 healed
were 4 healing rn
its not fun
Just killed mythic Cosmos 🥳
i love this.
woohoo grats!
gz
I changed my enchants to tank spec - you reckon that matters much % wise for when i start trying to pug chim mythic?
Thank you 🙂
the only thing different is your leg enchant, no?
and chest i guess
Can't believe what a difference these 2 talent changes made for my M+ progression. Like an idiot I was running double swiftmend thinking more swiftmend better for blooms and treants. And with master shapeshifter my mana issues have been solved.
link to build
ill show you the full sculpture when its done :3
oo yes please! im gonna be starting a fine arts degree
so do our heals just suck if there is a disc priest in the raid
no
chest is same... it should just be leg
chest is actually the same. its helm/shoulder/legs/boots/rings that are different
would expect bear to have different jewelery anyway... they aren't haste/mast stacking, right?
and the tert enchants won't really matter for a single mythic boss
So I know talenting Fluid Form is a DPS loss, but given the sheer amount of things you can shapeshift off this season, is it worth it so you don't have to press an empty global just on Shapeshift?
sweet, just wanted to make sure i wasnt griefing myself
arent you putting haste on rings as a bear?
and everything else is avoidance anyways?
yeah haste on rings, speed on helm and shoulders, speed/stam on boots
Does lura reset cds or something the top logs are using innervate before it comes of cd
sorry like which one are you referring to
the ones in the middle? they are receiving an innervate
viserio is your own casts I thought
sorry?
i love it
i think id like it more if we 3 healed
but its just boring
nothing happens, we miss a kick, we wipe
theres barely anything to heal this tier in general and beloren isnt any different why are people 4 healing
just the nerfs?
because were holding dps anyways
ah ok
its super lame
boring
Just look at it as a different kind of challenge. Sure healing will be easy, but you can also save a lot of pulls by soaking a lot of orbs, standing in as many quills as possible etc
You end up carrying the fight more than healing-centric ones, just in a different way
If number no go up did you really do anything
definitely been doing lots of orb soaking, everyone seems to be afraid of them
"i didnt 2 soak because i didnt have a defensive"
meanwhile im in bear soaking 8 of them
when will blizz refix "Resolved an issue where sometimes Soul of the Forest could be immediately consumed if you spell-queued a Swiftmend after casting Regrowth."
Holy
i lived for the nexus kind cyclone
I asked this before, but I still cant decide, mythic tier head with avoidance or mythic bifurcation band, have hero of those exact items in both slots atm.
head is more value
personally id take helmet, your hero one has avoidance too? thats wild
ty
ya lol
worst spell
Its pretty solid, unlike angelic bulwark 😡
how are the Gem embellishment compare to Arcanoweave Lining or similar
ya mythic band is only .07% better than crafted ring
2% avoidance gota be better than that
it procs call of the elder
oh did you delete that before i thought zimbita ghost pinged me
idc about that talent so
drruid is boringwithout it
Nance are you excited to kill L'ura!!
do what?
vs Heart of Wild heroic which better ?
Planning to club the trinket with Convoke or tranq
toss em into qelive
What are people's thoughts on Wild Charge vs Tiger Dash for M+?
I've run Tigers Dash for a while now and don't feel like I could live without it. But I assume Wild Charge is arguably the better option most of the time.
ive never had issue running dash
It's movement, that's subjective.
I prefer tiger dash because it's affected by the evoker thingy that gives you extra, and it's nice to drink and sprint with shadowmeld eat at the end of pulls.
No matter how many times I try the shadowmeld drink I get pulled into combat 🤣 skill issue.
Tiger dash is better for getting where you need to be faster, the benefit of wc is it is off gcd
Does WC make you physically travel to the location. Eg can you get caught out by traps, environmental damage etc.
Preference thing. I’ve been fine defaulting tiger dash.
But there are some skips where you will want wild charge and probs some other min maxxy things
You physically travel directly there but if not sure what you mean
It’s not instant so you can get hit by stuff
But it is a straight line
Yeah that's what I meant. Could get pulled through a trap or something and get stunned
Ahh yep it’s not a blink
Thanks
finally
lol midnight to 3 am works great for me
aight makes sense, thought you guys were extending regular hours way beyond reason
wouldve been a case for the overtime police
idt we do
do you?
as in, are u guys gonna
im gonna
barely in p3, might hit p4 tonight
barely in p3 is a solid night or two away from a kill still I think
we're chain pulling p3 which is good

middle of the tier pushover boss
